thought i'd make one for a few reasons...
-- I couldnt find a detailed one for SCCA/Rally how to get started kind of thing for rally n00bs...
-- To help alleviate some of my email flow. I do get some similar type questions over and over again....
Please take a peek - and if you could, would, suggest what [i]other[/i] questions/information would be appropriate additions to the page, I'd like it to be comprehensive, but yet not overwhelming

Do you know if some of the licensing requires schooling (aka more $)?
Nice start to the FAQ. Looking forward to it getting fully fleshed out w/ ALL the knowledge needed to get started in Rally. ;)

good question...
there is no experience needed to obtain an scca club license, you do have to attend at least a one day seminar/class either at an event or on it's own but those are free.
club rally license has it's own fee
separate from your regular SCCA membership.
Pro Rally...
you cannot obtain an SCCA Pro license unless you're a Seed (driver level) 5 or higher - Pro fees are even MORE than SCCA Club level fees.
good issue to address somewhere in there.
i'll write it up and get it added.
thank you for the suggestion.

Hey Jaimie -
Maybe a bit about the car classifications -
Production Classes: P/PGT stock, restrictors, drive trains, turbos ect. Example cars
G2/5 - more open then P, 2 wheel drive only, example cars
N - FIA standard, used worldwide, very strict homologated parts only, example cars
Open - what's not allowed, compared to WRC cars (more HP, H-tranny's),
Homologation - what it means

That's nice, Jamie. With regard to your answer to "What is Rally?", you might want to include the other events that fall under the same umbrella. What you describe there is World/Pro/Club Rally, the high end of the sport. You may also want to talk about RallyX, TSDs, Gimmick Rallies, Road Rally, etc.
Nice of you to put that together.

i'll consider that,
but mainly my web site and most of the questions i get focus around performance rally ..... i suppose this could be expanded on. i do make mention of scca roadrally & scca rallycross - and information for those events can be found on the same page(s) as the performance events... :)

AN OVERVIEW OF CAR RALLYES TYPES by BILL JONESI
I. PERFORMANCE RALLYES (RALLY RACING, STAGE RALLYING)
Basically dirt/gravel/mud/snow/ice road racing against the clock on closed roads. Cars need to be race prepared with rollcage, harnesses, helmets, fire extinguisher, competition license, etc. and requires a co-driver to read route information.
1. PRORALLY
National championship caliber events, usually run over 2 to 3 days, with at least 100 miles of stage legs where the roads are closed for competition.
2. CLUBRALLY
Divisional level area championship events that generally run a single day, with 30 to 100 stage miles.
3. RALLYSPRINT
Short events with multiple runs over a single closed course, such as off-road recreation park or hill climb. May not require co-driver or routebook.
4. RALLYCROSS (RALLY-X)
Low speed autocross like events on unpaved field/lot. Does not require co-driver, routebook or most safety equipment.
II. TIMED RALLYES
Scoring of Timed rallyes are generally based solely on correct arrival time at various CPs (Checkpoints) with penalties for either early or late arrival, along a route with locations may be known or unknown. Events are held on open public roads.
1. TSD (TIME, SPEED, DISTANCE, TIME AND DISTANCE, T&D, ROADRALLY)
Route is followed by a set of Route Instructions (sometimes supplemented with Note Instructions) with one or more assigned average speeds per leg. Penalty for early or late arrival at checkpoints.
2. TRAP TSD
Same as above, but with looped course following or timing traps to increase difficulty.
3. MONTE CARLO
Route Instructions similar to TSD, generally with Tulip (Alpine) diagrams of each intersection, to ease course following. Generally there are no traps, only one average speed per leg, and each leg has large section (1/4-3/4 of leg) before the Minimum Distance that the CP can occur, and hence no average speed needs to be maintained there.
4. PAN AM (KNOWN TRUE TIME MAP MONTE CARLO)
Route is followed by Map(s) and Course information, and traps are possible. Generally on each leg you determine your own route to the Standoff (similar to Minimum Distance) at which point you will see (or be given other information to determine the location) of the CP. The exact time to arrive at the CP is known (and creeping is allowed).
5. PAN CARLO
Hybrid of Monte Carlo & Pan Am, maps are used navigate to the Minimum Distance, and an assigned average speed is used to determine correct time to arrive at the CP, traps are possible.
6. REGULARITY
Route is followed by a set of Route Instructions, contestants set their own speed, and are timed at unknown locations. They then rerun the course one or more times and attempt to match those times.
III. GIMMICK RALLYES (VARIETY)
Scoring of Gimmick rallyes are generally based solely on marking a scoresheet with information found along the route. Any time restraint is limited to X hours on route or finish by X:00. Events are held on open public roads.
1. Q-A (QUESTION & ANSWER)
Various Questions are interspersed in the Route Instructions.
2. A-B (DUAL PART ROUTE INSTRUCTION)
Each Route Instruction has two parts, A & B, the scoresheet is marked with which part can be validly done first, if both can be done at the same point then C is marked.
3. CM (COURSEMARKER)
The route is followed by a simple set of Route Instructions, along the route CMs (a letter & number combination on a posted sign) are encountered which are recorded on the scoresheet and bring into effect supplemental instructions.
4. PHOTO
The route is followed by a simple set of Route Instructions, valid Photos are identified, and the mileage at which they occurred along the route is marked on the scoresheet. A working odometer is needed.
5. HARE AND HOUND
The route is followed by finding markings (generally a mound of flour/lime) at intersections. If a mound is found, the correct course may have turned. A confirming mound will be located a short distance (1/10-1/4 mile) down the correct course. A working odometer is needed, adjusted mileage closest to rallyemaster wins.
6. MAP CLUE
A set of clues or riddles are given, the correct answers of which are streets or landmarks found on the provided map. A course is then laid out to travel to these points to gather the requested information for your scoresheet.

I started the list to explain the different types for rallye participants in the US. At this point I'm not sure I know enough about Rally-Raid events to distinguish them from WRC events, etc. other than their point-to-point nature. In Great Britain they run map navigational timed rallies, that have a little similarity to our Cal. Pan Am rallyes. However I don't understand the different "flavor" enough to include them too.

I've got a question Subie Gal... do you have a younger sister or something??? :D:D:) I'm in need of a girl that loves subarus anf rallying as much as I do... I've never heard of a girl that loves rally racing somuch that she became a driver of her own car!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!! :D:D
Anyway my real question is if you ever need anyone to crew for you and you come do some of the Rally's on the east coast then let me know!!! I'd love to do it!!!
I actually am looking into starting my own rally team up when I get back to Australia... Looking into getting a 1999 WRX STi for my everyday "fun" car and a late model STi (probably Version 2 or something) and making that my rally car... But I would be running in the Australian rally's so it looks like I won't get the chance to race against ya :(:( Oh well, you'd probably put the smack down on me anyways... :)
Much props to ya!!! :D:D

Sitting here in Sydney minding me own business.. :p:p :lol:
*North of england accent on*
Eeee lad.. that were a long time ago
They were based on 6 digit map references that you were given immediately upon starting the event. Your timing on the event starting as you got the route book. You then plotted these onto 1" to the mile Ordnance Survey maps with control points nominated as to the direction from which you had to arrive and depart them. If the route was going through a village or something then the route book also designated it as a "quiet zone" where speed and noise had to be controlled.
The name of the game was to get as many points plotted as quickly as possible and then get the car underway on the route while carrying on plotting the remaining route and calling the road to the driver. These are high resolution maps and you can call the road with pretty reasonable accuracy.
I used to mark up the maps with notes, kinda like primitive pace notes, so I could keep my driver out of the local scenery :eek:
One of the "fun things" was that you usually met a local farmer, in the wee small hours of the night, coming home the other way from his local pub in his land rover..
Usually when you you were pushing on a bit.. :eek: :eek: Thank God that Mini Coopers were small. :cool:
*wipes teary glisten from eyes*

I dunno if this is the right thread or not but....
The SCCA rulebook says that for PGT, "The wheels and are tires free, respecting the diameter and width listed on the official factory shop manual...."
What are the allowed wheel dimensions on a WRX in PGT? Obviously, wheels other than the stock 16x6.5 wheels are legal but I was wondering what other sizes are.
Thanks!

as long as the wheels bolt on?
and you do not modify the hub etc to fit them, they're legal
rule of thumb for production/PGT is...
if the rulebook doesnt SAY SPECIFICALLY that you can do it...
assume you CANT

How exactly do I sign up for these though, all I see is a registration links for each auto-x. Do I have to call and let someone know, or do I just show up and they'll know i'm a first timer? And lastly should I assume my first auto-x isn't going to involve any driving, but in a classroom all day?
any help is appreciated! thanks

Good news for STi owners BTW...new class introduced at Auto-X is called STU...it fits for STi perfectly (ones that are mod of course)
You MUST stay with street tires with wear of 140+ to remain in the class...I race SCCA all the time and I can help answer any Auto-X questions. I placed first in my last race...was my first win since I started non-novice racing.

It depends on what type of "playing in the dirt" you intend to do. If you are doing rallyx, then, no. If you are doing club/pro rally, then YES.
It's not hard to find crew... check out a local car club. When we need crew, we have friends and local clubbers joining us. There are a lot of car enthusiasts who love the idea of rally but don't really want to do it... so they crew and enjoy the rally community.
Last time we went to Maine, our crew was made up of guys fromthe NASIOC Northeast group. We posted, they answered and crewed. It was super! :banana:
We provide a crew package that includes hotel, some food and minor monetary compensation. :)

We provide a crew package that includes hotel, some food and minor monetary compensation. :)

California is a different country isn't it? Don't you need to check the FIA or CARS rules too. :lol:

Definately, the Rally FAQ will need to be updated as soon as all of the changes are sorted out.

This may sound strange... but...
I think this thread needs to be updated to get rid of references to SCCA, with the exception of rallycross, and include Rally America and NASA, as those are the two current Performance Rally sanctioning bodies.
I think that with the number of rally-related organizations now running events (SCCA with rallycross and TSD, NASA with rallycross, rallysprint, and national and regional performance rally, and RA with ProRally and ClubRally), the information found in a thread like this is more and more valuable.

Hey, I was wondering, for those of us who don't have the money to afford that type of serious and competitive level of Rallying, and don't have the time because they work full-time to make ends meet, is there any way you could perhaps add a section or some links to some other databases/sites for people who just like legally taking their cars off-road?
My favorite thing in life is driving in any condition other than pavement... But there's no way I can get into doing it professionally because I've been looking around and it's so costly and complex, I'd just love to find some simple places where you are free to throw your car around some places off the road, in my area.
Any suggestions for someone who's currently living around D.C.?
Thanks.

Best bet is to try MAIC. This forum is for actual sanctioned motorsports.
But even in MAIC, we get a thread like this a couple times a year and there isn't much luck with it. Most people who have good spots keep them to themselves (for obvious reasons).

or Miata and Impreza Club, since most of the MAIC mods seem to be buying those little girlie, go-kart cars. :)
